The United States Military is investigating a video that allegedly shows US Marines urinating on dead Taliban fighters.

The United States military on Monday announced it will discipline soldiers involved in two high profile incidents in Afghanistan, but they will not face criminal prosecution.

CBS News reported six Army soldiers and three Marines will receive administrative punishments for a video which depicted Marines urinating on corpses, and a second incident, involving burning copies of the Koran.

Afghan President Hamid Karzai had called the video "inhuman," and "initially called for a public trial for the soldiers over the Koran incident," according to Reuters.

Discipline against a Navy sailor in the Koran case was dismissed. The Marine Corps said it will announce discipline against additional Marines in the urination case, CBS reported.
